Greetings.
I am a man in a suit who has fallen into the world of Minecraft.
There is still something more waiting beneath the ground.
This time, I will attempt the more dangerous Ominous Trial…!
Drinking an Ominous Bottle and Returning to the Trial
The item in my hand is an Ominous Bottle.
If I drink it and approach a Trial Spawner, it seems that a more dangerous Ominous Trial will begin.

The Vault in front of me looks different from the one I opened last time.
There may be something inside that will bring me closer to making a Mace.
I want to open it.
First, however, I must survive an Ominous Trial and obtain the special key it requires.

I am already nervous, and I have not even drunk the bottle yet.
Still, I came all this way to try.
Here goes.

A Cyan Trial Spawner and a Serious Battle
As I approached the Trial Spawner, its flames turned a pale cyan.
The atmosphere was clearly different from an ordinary trial.

Skeletons carrying bows appeared.
Arrows came at me one after another, and even hiding behind my shield gave me little time to relax.
Arrows stuck into the floor and walls while my health and armor were gradually worn down.

I would like to scold myself for thinking that full Netherite gear would make everything fine.
This was genuinely dangerous.
I blocked arrows with my shield, swung my sword whenever an opening appeared, and returned to cover.
By resisting the urge to rush into the room, I somehow fought all the way to the end.
The Ominous Trial Key Is Nowhere to Be Found
At last, the Ominous Trial was over.
All that remained was to pick up the key and open the Vault.
At least, that was what I expected.
I looked everywhere, but there was no key.
It seems that completing the trial does not guarantee one.
Unfortunately, I could not find an Ominous Trial Key this time.
The Ominous Vault remained sealed in front of me.

After all that fighting, I still could not open it.
The Heavy Core and the Mace would have to wait.
How frustrating.
I wanted to search a little longer, but the arrows had already taken a heavy toll.
Rather than become greedy, I decided to retreat.

Arrows were still flying even as I turned away.
There was no safe moment until I was finally out.
Back in the village, I looked at the Breeze Rods I brought home last time.

Six Breeze Rods are already stored here.
I have one of the materials needed for a Mace.
After fighting so hard, returning home without opening the Vault in front of me was still very disappointing.
Now I only need to find the key and finally discover what is inside.
Next time, I will attempt the Ominous Trial again.
I hope I can obtain the key and open that Vault at last…!
That is all for this time.
Greetings.
